- the present inventor enables, in a display device having a display panel fixed to the surface of a support, reuse of a display panel or support without defects when a defect occurs in some of the components, etc.
- the display panel can be properly fixed to the surface of the support by using a structure in which the display panel is fixed to the support via a member capable of holding the display panel in a predetermined position of the support. And, it has been found that the display panel can be easily removed from the support if necessary. That is, the display panel is engaged with the holding member formed to hold the display panel on the support without being adhered to the support using an adhesive or the like, and the holding member is adhered to the support Ru.
- the display panel Since the relative movement of the display panel to the support is limited by the holding member, the display panel is fixed at a predetermined position on the surface of the support. And when removing a display panel from a support body, a display panel can be easily removed from a support body by isolate
- the inventors have found that the appearance of the display can be improved by providing on the support a wire for transmitting a drive signal or the like applied to the display panel held on the support. That is, conventionally, an FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) or the like is mainly used as such a wiring, but the present inventor says that the wiring such as the FPC prevents the appearance of the display device from being damaged. We found the problem and its solution. In the conventional display device, an FPC or the like constituting the wiring is connected at its end portion to a display panel or a driver or the like that generates a drive signal.
- FPC Flexible Printed Circuit
- the FPC or the like is used in a state in which the intermediate portion is floated in the air without being fixed, and in a state in which it is mainly deflected toward a viewer of the display device so that tension is not applied.
- a smartphone, or the like such a wiring of an FPC or the like is covered with a housing or the like, and therefore, the eyes of a person who looks at a display device are not touched.
- the FPC provided with a large number of wires floating in the air around the display panel or a large number of parallel wires is a display device It is likely to be visible to the viewer and therefore may impair the aesthetics of the display.
- the wiring that shakes when vibration is applied is disturbing.
- the display device is disposed in a relatively narrow space such as a vehicle interior and the display screen is closely watched from the vicinity thereof, such a wiring capable of vibrating may possibly deteriorate the appearance quality of the display device.
- the inventor of the present invention provides the wiring on the support, provides the connector which can be connected with the display panel to the above-mentioned holding member, and engages the display panel with the holding member to support the display panel It was found that connection with wiring on the body was made via a connector. By doing so, the display panel can be easily replaced including the electrical connection with the driver and the separation thereof, and the wiring which can not be oscillated can be seen from the eye of the viewer of the display device rather than the display screen. It can be neatly prepared at a deep position. As a result, it is possible to give a clear impression to the user, and in the past, it is possible to improve the aesthetics of the display device that may be degraded by the wiring around the display panel.

Therefore, the display panel 3 can be easily removed from the support member 5 only by removing the display panel 3 from the connector 2 and separating the display panel 3 and the holding member 4 which are only engaged with each other. Therefore, when a defect occurs in the support member 5, the display panel 3 can be easily reused by removing the display panel 3 and combining it with another support member. Further, when the display panel 3 is broken, the support member 5 can be reused by removing the display panel 3 and mounting another display panel.
- the first terminal group 31 connected to the drive element 39 of the display panel 3 is connected to the wiring 51 through the contact 21 of the connector 2 and the second terminal group 52. Therefore, by connecting a conductive wire (not shown) connected to a driver (not shown) or the like to the wiring 51, a drive signal or the like can be applied to the drive element 39. That is, it is not necessary to arrange the conventional wiring composed of the FPC or the like while floating in the air.

Even when the display panel 3 is removed from the support member 5, the separation of the holding member 4 and the display panel 3 and the release of the electrical connection between the drive element 39 and the driver can be simultaneously performed.
- connection through the connector 2 is different from the case of using the solder etc. and in principle there is no strength deterioration at the connection portion due to the enlargement of the intermetallic compound due to the temperature change. Connection reliability is considered to be improved.

- Each terminal which constitutes the 1st terminal group 31 may have thickness of 5 micrometers or more and 30 micrometers or less, for example.
- each of the terminals constituting the first terminal group 31 uses a light shielding metal such as copper or nickel, or a translucent conductive material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium oxide-zinc oxide (IZO) It is preferable to form a coating layer of a gold plating film on a conductor pattern formed of these materials. This is because there is no formation of a natural oxide film, and good electrical connection is maintained even if desorption to the connector 2 is performed.
- a light shielding metal such as copper or nickel
- a translucent conductive material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium oxide-zinc oxide (IZO) It is preferable to form a coating layer of a gold plating film on a conductor pattern formed of these materials. This is because there is no formation of a natural oxide film, and good electrical connection is maintained even if desorption to the connector 2 is performed.
- each component has a thickness of the display panel 3 for easy viewing of the first and second terminal groups 31 and 52 and the like. It is drawn emphasizing appropriately in the vertical direction. Therefore, a space is generated between the display panel 3 and the support member 5.
- the actual thickness of each terminal group of the second terminal group 52 is about several ⁇ m as described later, and the thickness of the intervening portion of the connector 2 between the display panel 3 and the support member 5 is also several Since it is about mm, the display panel 3 may be in contact with the support member 5 in most of the first surface 3 f.

- Such a weak adhesive layer is made of, for example, an adhesive containing, as a main component, an acrylic resin, a silicone resin or a urethane resin singly or in combination.
- the shape and material of the support member 5 are not particularly limited as long as the support member 5 can properly support the display panel 3.
- the support member 5 is preferably formed using a material that can form the surface 5 a that can form the interconnection 51 directly with sufficient adhesion strength.
- the wiring 51 may be formed on a separate base 50 (see FIG. 9) and then bonded to the surface 5a. Therefore, the support member 5 does not necessarily have to be able to form the wiring 51 directly on the surface 5a.

Further, when the wiring 51 is formed of a light shielding metal material such as copper described later, it is preferable that there is no light shielding member between each of the plurality of wirings 51, that is, each of the plurality of wirings 51. It is preferable that the windshield is exposed in the meantime. By doing so, the forward visibility at the time of driving can be sufficiently secured, which can contribute to safe operation.
